I know the point of the article - but as I side note, I have to say - students should have their laptops taken away! I think it actually hinders their learning.

Where did we get the ridiculous idea that technology is a magic wand for primary education?

The internet is great for furthering knowledge once the basics are learned which is where the schools should stop.

I personally don’t think the K thru 12 model is effective anyway because all kids aren’t the same.
